Here goes: Player roll=7 Vashni: nat 20! , 12 Dirty Joe: nat 1, 7 Malthus: 2, 13 ...fingers crossed... :mrgreen: Vashni taps into the (super)hero within and wills him(?)self up and over the crackling death below, landing in a 3 point stance safely outside the water's reach. Dirty Joe and Malthus......

Player roll: 3. Down the line as in my sig for each character: 17,10 2,18 4,17 13,18 Also, the falcon flew up into the air as soon as it noticed the statue moving. Reflex roll: 15. "Elrod"and "Legolad" leap to the wall, maintain their balance, and avoid death for the time being....

The Seven Pits of Sezrekan has not been published in its entirety. The seventh & final pit (plus the two areas that were least explored when 7PoS debuted at GenCon 2014) were included in print in the 2015 Goodman Games GenCon Program Guide - pages 65-82. So if I snag that I have the 7th pit. We...

Chance: "Alright! Let's get out of here!" Gromluck marches south, out of the fountain room, carefully retracing his path back to the elevator. When in doubt, he tests the floor with the handle of his hammer. Vijo and Chance wait to see if the others are going to follow... Tellessa grabs t...

"Let's make the hole bigger!" Barnum widens the hole. Indeed he does. Water (no more than toe deep) slowly starts to spread around the chamber. Shawn the Sheep laps at it greedily. There's a slight depression at the center (where the fountain is) so it doesn't go beyond the entrance, but ...

Rick: Hey, you're the GM. If you wanna keep everyone together, because splitting up is a pain to manage, that's no problem. Your call. No, no... go where you wish to go, do whatever you want. :) I was just copying something I observed Jim Ward do at Gary Con last month. When someone at our table (h...

"Sure," Tellesa replies.

Barnum takes the crowbar and digs in, trying to create a leak.

He succeeds, water flows out of a roughly egg-sized hole.

A chunk of mortar gives way. Her elven hands sting, partially from the impact but mostly from the contact with the iron crowbar.

Crowbar and chest lid retrieved.

Oh, and belated welcome back to GnomeBoy

Having rolled a 4 to secure the "scoop", it quickly comes apart and fails to serve as intended. You still manage to drag the crowbar to within reach, though.

Tellessa is going to examine the pipes. Can the fountain somehow be drained? Can the wall of the fountain be damaged? Small jets of water pour into the fountain from embedded pipes set into the pedestal at its center. The pipes protrude just an inch or so from the stone. The outer wall of the fount...

How does one yank back ropes lassoed and pulled taut around the statue's arm (genuinely curious) :?: But roll well enough (d10) and it'll likely happen anyway Need another roll for the creation of the "scoop" --- d10, or d20 if the occupation deals with building or crafting of some sort.

Awesome! Gene jabs his crowbar into the arm socket and tries to pry it open. Roll is 11 if needed. Not as awesome as you might think, I'm afraid :| Jamming the crowbar in results in a significant discharge of electricity from the metal statue. Gene takes 15 points of damage and is hurled across the...

quozl wrote:OK, Gene will try to climb up to the shoulder. He rolls... a 9.

Okay. You manage to make your way up there. You're approx. 10 ft above the water level.

quozl wrote:Whoa! Big statue! How easy is it to climb? Gene will try it if it's not going to kill himself trying.

Lots of hand/foot holds, so Gene can roll a d20. No guarantees on the no killing, though

The pedestal itself is just under 5' tall. The trident alone is 12' long.

Gene will examine the statue, looking for any seams where he can jam in his crowbar. There's a horizontal one at its waist (roughly where "mer" ends and "maid" begins) and a vertical one between shoulder and arm w/ trident. The first is 7 or so feet above your current position, ...

quozl wrote:Woohoo! 19!

Okay. Gene smoothly butterfly strokes right over and is at the pedestal upon which the statue stands. Water from the small jets gently pours down on his head, but otherwise nothing happens (yet)..,

The throw is off, but the falcon fully reacts as intended and assists in getting the rope where you wanted it.

Fenris Ulfhamr wrote:Vashni: d10(+?)=8

It's far from perfect, but you manage to get the rope more or less in the general area you wanted it, and it holds when tugged on.

quozl wrote:Gene will dive in and swim to the mechanical statue.

Give me a roll (d20) for Gene. Not for swimming, necessarily (water is no more than 2' deep). Just because.

Elrod smiles and says in Elven, "Whichever one gets into the water is my wager, I'll put ten copper on it." Celebron is not amused, in fact, the plan to tie down the statue worries her, she says in Common, "We have no idea how powerful this mechanism is. Are we sure a few people can ...

Vashni attempts to throw a loop in the middle of the robe around the weapon-arm of the mermaid and with Joe's help, twine the ends about the statue in an attempt to tangle it. Then they hold the remaining ends tightly. Roll?

Robe = rope, yes?

And a d10 roll, please.
